The Final Fantasy 7 remake series blends iconic moments from the original game with innovative characters and storylines, a trend continued in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. While some critics question the handling of multiverse elements in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the game excels in reintroducing beloved scenes from the original, with one notable exception for part 3.
In the original Final Fantasy 7, the antagonist Sephiroth emerges as a final boss. However, the remake trilogy places him prominently right from the start. Serving as the ultimate adversary in both Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the repetitive use of Sephiroth in these climactic battles indicates the probable absence of Bizarro Sephiroth in the trilogy's final chapter.
Potential Omission of Bizarro Sephiroth in Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3
The original 1997 release culminates in a series of boss battles, including Jenova Synthesis, followed by Bizarro Sephiroth, and the ultimate adversary, Safer Sephiroth. The unique feature of these battles, particularly facing Bizarro Sephiroth, varied based on several conditions met during the previous encounters. This intricate setup allowed players to engage with Bizarro Sephiroth differently, depending on their progress and recruited characters.
The absence of Bizarro Sephiroth in part 3 stems from Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, which elevates this battle to the pinnacle of the game. Renamed as Sephiroth Reborn, this boss closely resembles Bizarro Sephiroth while introducing a multidimensional aspect, featuring phases where different teams, including Zack and Cloud, combat the boss.
Reimagining the Final Sephiroth Battle in Part 3
With the probable exclusion of Bizarro Sephiroth, part 3 faces the challenge of delivering a unique final battle compared to the previous Sephiroth encounters. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth mirrors the original game's climax, leading from the Jenova Lifeclinger battle to the Sephiroth Reborn showdown, setting the stage for potential deviations in the final battles of part 3.
The anticipated highlight of this finale revolves around the Safer Sephiroth fight, renowned in gaming history. However, preceding bosses might deviate significantly from the original storyline due to the emergence of Whispers and the convergence of diverse worlds in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Instead of Bizarro Sephiroth, the segment between Jenova Synthesis and Safer Sephiroth might introduce a final showdown with the Whispers, resolving this remake trilogy subplot.
